Pain still 1yr and 4Mth post Colorectal Surgery

I don’t know if I have a hernia again. It feels that I do. In June they fixed two hernias. They only saw one. I do have an opening that my transverse colon and cecum is pulsing through. That is what may need surgery though I will try to avoid this.
Hysterectomies also bring on adhesions.
I am working with a psychologist to realize that I have to live with the pain.

I’m so sorry. That’s awful and I’m sure stressful. Are you planning on just trying to live with the pain? I’ve been using THC and CBD (MMJ card) and that helps a little bit. I use THC and CBD suppositories too which help a bit.

I’m seeing a psychologist for CBT for chronic pain. It’s not super helpful haha but it helps to talk to someone.
